Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Gabriel Technologies Corp., (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, for value received, hereby promises to pay to the order of Broidy Capital Management or holder ("Lender") in lawful money of the United States at 1801 Century Park East, Suite 2150, Los Angeles, California 90067, the principal amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), together with simple interest at a rate equal to nine percent (9.0%) per annum, which interest shall be paid to Lender for the first three months to be paid April 1, 2006.

The Note



 

2.1     The Convertible Note . On or about December 9, 2005, Lender loaned to the Company Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000), as evidenced by the Original Promissory Note. Lender now agrees, subject to the terms of this Agreement, to loan the Company an additional Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars ($800,000), minus Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000)   in non-accountable expenses to be incurred by the Lender in connection with this transaction. Therefore, upon completion of the documentation of all legal documents contemplated hereunder, Lender shall loan to Company Seven Hundred Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($775,000) (the "New Loan"). The loan reflected by the Original Promissory Note shall then be rolled into this Convertible Note, and Gabriel’s obligation to repay the Original Promissory Note, the New Loan and the $25,000 in non-accountable expenses shall be evidenced by a Convertible Senior Promissory Note (the "Convertible Note") in the amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) dated as of the Closing Date (as defined below) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C .

2.3     Delivery . At the Closing, the Company shall deliver the Convertible Note to Lender who shall then deliver to the Company within two business days $775,000 via wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Company’s designated bank account. If the Company is not at the closing the Company shall deliver the executed Convertible Note to Lender by the fastest available means.

2.5     Superiority and Subordination . Other than the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility with the Nebraska State Bank, entered into as of August 12, 2005, so long as the Convertible Note is outstanding Lender’s rights under this Convertible Note shall be senior to and shall have priority in payment of principal and interest as against any other promissory notes or indebtedness of the Company.

 

 

3.

Conditions; Representations and Warranties; Covenants .



 

3.1     Conditions to Obligations of the Lender . The Lender’s obligations at the Closing are subject to the fulfillment, prior to the Closing Date, of all of the following conditions, any of which may be waived in whole or in part by Lender, and all of which shall be deemed satisfied by Lender’s execution of this Agreement:

(a)    Except for the notices required or permitted to be filed after the Closing Date with certain federal and state securities commissions, the Company shall have obtained all governmental approvals (including without limitation all necessary state securities laws permits and qualifications) required in connection with the lawful sale and issuance of the Note.

(b)    At the Closing, the sale and issuance by the Company, and the purchase by the Lender, of the Convertible Note shall be legally permitted by all laws and regulations to which the Lender or the Company is subject.

(c)    All corporate and other proceedings in connection with the transactions contemplated at the Closing and all documents and instruments incident to such transaction shall be reasonably satisfactory in substance and form to the Lender.

(d)    Prior to the Closing, the Company shall deliver to Lender copies of (i) the total amount of authorized, issued and outstanding shares in Gabriel and all related entities; (ii) the total amount of options that have been issued by Gabriel and all related entities, including the terms of such options; (iii) the total amount of warrants that have been issued by Gabriel and all related entities, including the terms of such warrants; (iv) the total amount of Gabriel stock, options and warrants owned by Elliott Broidy both before and after the Investment, and (v) a copy of Company’s credit agreement with the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility with the Nebraska State Bank, entered into as of August 12, 2005 and (vi) the signed side letter referred to in Exhibit I , attached hereto.

3.2     Conditions to Obligations of the Company . The Company’s obligation to issue and sell the Convertible Note at the Closing is subject to the fulfillment, to the Company’s satisfaction on or prior to the Closing Date, of the following conditions, any of which may be waived in whole or in part by the Company, and all of which shall be deemed satisfied by Company’s execution of this Agreement:

(a)    Except for the notices required or permitted to be filed after the Closing Date with certain federal and state securities commissions, the Company shall have obtained all governmental approvals (including without limitation all necessary state securities laws permits and qualifications) required in connection with the lawful sale and issuance of the Convertible Note.

3

 

 

(b)    At the Closing, the sale and issuance by the Company, and the purchase by Lender, of the Convertible Note shall be legally permitted by all laws and regulations to which the Lender or the Company is subject.

3.3     Representations and Warranties by the Lender . Lender hereby represents and warrants to the Company as set forth in Exhibit D .

3.4     Representations and Warranties by the Company . The Company hereby represents and warrants to the Lender as set forth in Exhibit E .

3.5     Conversion Right . The Company and Lender agree that at any time so long as the Convertible Note is outstanding, Lender has the right to convert the Convertible Note (the "Conversion Right") into up to $1,000,000 worth of common stock of the Company at a per share price of $1.00 (the "Strike Price"). As set forth in the Convertible Note, the Company agrees that it may prepay principal amounts owed to Lender under this Convertible Note provided that the Company provides fifteen (15) days written notice and confirmation of the receipt of such notice by Lender. Lender shall be able to exercise his Conversion Right under the Convertible Note during the period that the Company has provided notice of its desire to prepay principal but before such prepayment has taken place.

3.6     Antidilution . The Company and Lender agree that so long as any amounts are owed to the Lender by the Company under this Convertible Note, should the Company issue securities, options, warrants or derivatives of any kind with a sale, exercise or strike price less than One Dollar and Fifty Cents ($1.50) per share, then the Strike Price of the Conversion Right will be reduced by the percentage of the difference between $1.50 and the price of the issued security, option warrant or derivative. Thus, by way of example, if while the Convertible Note is still outstanding the Company were to issue securities, warrants, options or derivatives with an exercise price of $.75 — i.e. a total of 50% (75/150) below $1.50— then the $1.00 Strike Price referred to in Section 3.5 shall likewise be reduced by 50% - i.e. to $.50 ($l.00*50%) per share — and Lender would therefore have the option of converting the Convertible Note into a total of 2,000,000 shares.

In the event that the Company shall at any time hereafter (a) pay a dividend in Common Stock or securities convertible into Common Stock; (b) subdivide or split its outstanding Common Stock; (c) combine its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; then the number of shares to be issued immediately after the occurrence of any such event shall be adjusted so that Lender thereafter may still receive the same number of warrants he would have owned immediately following such action if he had exercised the Conversion Right immediately prior to such action and the Strike Price of this Convertible Note set forth in Section 3.5   above shall be adjusted to reflect such proportionate increases or decreases in the number of shares.

3.7     Change in Control Event . The Company shall give Lender at least fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice of the date of the consummation of any (i) reorganization, recapitalization, sale, conveyance or other disposition of all or a majority of the property or business of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, (ii) merger into or consolidation of the Company or a material subsidiary of the Company with any other corporation (other than a wholly owned subsidiary corporation) or other transaction or series of related transactions in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Company is disposed of, or (iii) liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company (each, a "Change in Control Event"). If Lender provides to the Company, within five days of the receipt of such notice, written notice objecting to the consummation of such Change in Control Event (the "Objection Notice"), then the Company shall not consummate such Change in Control Event unless (a) the surviving entity of such Change in Control Event (1) expressly assumes all of the obligations specified in this Agreement and the Note and (2) has a net worth not less than the consolidated net worth of the Company at the time of such Change in Control Event; or (b) the Company indefeasibly repays all of the outstanding principal amount of and interest on the Convertible Note within five business days after the closing date of such Change in Control Event.

 

4

 

 

3.8     Inspection Rights . Company shall permit any authorized representatives designated by Lender to visit and inspect any of the properties of Company, to inspect, copy and take extracts from its financial and accounting records, and to discuss its affairs, finances and accounts with its officers and independent public accountants (provided that Company may, if it so chooses, be present at or participate in any such discussion), all upon reasonable notice and at such reasonable times during normal business hours and as often as may reasonably be requested. Lender shall not use any information obtained under this Agreement for any purpose that is not reasonably related to performance of the respective rights and obligations of the parties hereunder, such rights and obligations including but not limited to repayment of the Convertible Note.

3.9     Restriction on Fundamental Changes . The Company shall not take any action that may reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on the Company’s ability to repay the Convertible Note and any accrued interest thereon when and as due without the prior written permission of Lender.

3.10           Restriction on Additional Debt . Other than the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility with the Nebraska State Bank, entered into as of August 12, 2005, so long as the Convertible Note is outstanding Lender shall have priority in payment of principal and interest as against any other promissory notes or indebtedness of the Company. The Company shall provide Lender with fifteen days prior notice before incurring any subordinated debt. Any such subordinated debt must be preapproved by Lender, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

3.11           No Public Statement . Lender and the Company shall not issue any public statement concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without written consent of the parties named in such public statement.

4.1     General Security Interest .

In the event that the Convertible Note is not paid off in full upon the Maturity Date, however, title to and ownership of the Pledged Securities shall automatically transfer to Lender and the Company shall document and effectuate such transfer, including the transfer of all associated stock powers, of the registered securities within five (5) business days of the Maturity Date. Transfer of the Pledged Securities to Lender shall not impinge or limit in any way Lender’s additional rights under the Convertible Note.

GABRIEL TECHNOLOGIES CORP.

CONVERTIBLE SENIOR PROMISSORY NOTE

 

 

 

$1,000,000

Los Angeles, California

January 6, 2006



 

1.     Principal and Interest . Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Gabriel Technologies Corp., (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, for value received, hereby promises to pay to the order of Broidy Capital Management or holder ("Lender") in lawful money of the United States at 1801 Century Park East, Suite 2150, Los Angeles, California 90067, the principal amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), together with simple interest at a rate equal to nine percent (9.0%) per annum, which interest shall be paid to Lender for the first three months to be paid April 1, 2006. Subsequent to such quarterly payment, interest shall be paid by Company monthly.

In exchange for this Convertible Senior Promissory Note, Lender has loaned to the Company a total of One Million Dollars $1,000,000, comprised of:

 

 

(a)

A Two Hundred Thousand Dollar ($200,000) loan made by Lender on or about December 9, 2005;



 

 

(b)

Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000)   in non-accountable expenses to be incurred by Lender in connection with this transaction, including but no limited to documentation costs; and



 

 

(c)

Seven Hundred Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($775,000) to be wired to Gabriel in immediately available funds upon finalization and signature of this agreement and any ancillary documents thereto.



 

12

 

 

The principal of this Convertible Note is due and payable on January 6, 2007 (the "Maturity Date"), unless this Convertible Note is earlier converted or prepaid in accordance herewith. All interest on this Convertible Note is due and payable on the Maturity Date.

2.     Subordination and Seniority . Other than the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility with the Nebraska State Bank, entered into as of August 12, 2005, so long as the Convertible Note is outstanding Lender’s rights under the Convertible Note shall be senior to and shall have priority in payment of principal and interest as against any other promissory notes or indebtedness of the Company.

3.     Conversion or Repayment . The Company and Lender agree that at any time so long as the Convertible Note is outstanding, subject to the Prepayment provision of Section 6 below, Lender has the right to convert the Convertible Note (the "Conversion Right") into up to $1,000,000 worth of common stock of the Company at a per share price of $1.00 (the "Strike Price"). Lender may exercise the Conversion Right by informing the Company either in writing or electronically that it intends to do so.

4.     Antidilution . The Company and Lender agree that so long as any amounts are owed to the Lender by the Company under this Convertible Note, should the Company issue securities, options, warrants or derivatives of any kind with an exercise or strike price less than One Dollar and Fifty Cents ($1.50) per share, then the Strike Price of the Conversion Right will be reduced by the percentage of the difference between $1.50   and the price of the issued security, option warrant or derivative. Thus, by way of example, if while the Convertible Note is still outstanding the Company were to issue securities, warrants, options or derivatives with an exercise price of $.75 — i.e. a total of 50% (75/150)   below $1.50— then the $1.00 Strike Price referred to in Section 3.5   shall likewise be reduced by 50% - i.e. to $.50   ($1.00*50%) per share — and Lender would therefore have the option of converting the Convertible Note into a total of 2,000,000 shares.

5.     Security . To guaranty and as security for repayment of the full principal amount of the Convertible Note plus interest, Lender shall receive a priority security interest in all of the assets and intellectual property of (i) the Company and (ii) Resilent LLC dba Digital Defense (the "Security Interest"). Company and Lender shall work together to promptly perfect Lender’s Security Interest in such assets and intellectual property.

As additional security for repayment of the full principal amount of the Note plus interest the Company shall pledge to Lender (i) all of the securities in the possession, custody or control of Company after its transaction with Resilent LLC, a Nebraska limited liability company, scheduled to take place on or about January 1115, 2006 and Company will also forward to Lender immediately upon receipt the Unit Certificate from Resilent LLC representing 11,818 Units;. and (ii) 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s common treasury stock (together, the "Pledged Securities"). Upon closing Company will instruct the Transfer Agent to transfer to Lender stock certificates sufficient to transfer the full amount of the Pledged Securities to Lender, together with documentation sufficient to transfer all associated stock powers to Lender in the event that the Company defaults under this Convertible Note.

13

 

 

After Closing, title to and ownership of the Pledged Securities shall remain with the Company unless and until this Convertible Note is paid off in full. In the event that this Convertible Note is not paid off in full upon the Maturity Date, however, title to and ownership of the Pledged Securities shall automatically transfer to Lender and the Company shall document and effectuate such transfer, including the transfer of all associated stock powers, of the registered securities within five (5) business days of the Maturity Date. Transfer of the Pledged Securities to Lender shall not impinge or limit in any way Lender’s additional rights under this Convertible Note.
